Dan's treatment model, Dyadic Developmental Psychotherapy, is family-based and focused on facilitating the child's ability to establish a secure attachment with his/her caregivers. Developmental attachment theory and research is the primary model used for relationship development and trauma resolution. Dan blends various approaches into his treatment modality. These include family therapy, Ericksonian hypnotherapy, psychodynamic principles, psychodrama, and interventions congruent with Theraplay and narrative work. He actively communicates PACE in order to co-regulate the affect associated with past experiences and to co-construct new meanings of these experiences.

"Every aspect of this training resonates with the needs of my clients. I look forward to beginning to integrate the model into my work." -- CO, LMFT

"Although I’m a social worker and not a therapist this training was so valuable and offered so many useful skills and ideas to share especially with the adoptive parents I work with." -- EC

"I’ve never been so excited about working with abused and neglected children and their families. This model of treatment gives me a lot hope for children with attachment challenges." -- LM

"This training I learned a lot! Great balance between lecture-interactive-video-etc. I loved the humor, the stories, incredible!" -- AS, LMFT

"Very excellent workshop, excellent role plays. Great experientials to practice the model. Loved Dan’s passion a lot. Loved the model-playful." -- SR
